I thought that was always the standard for getting one man full court press away, not sure why the Suns have not been using it

There are some key lineup changes and the Suns are playing with more energy tonight.

Also Pelicans shooting is averaging out since there is no way they keep shooting like 50 percent from 3 all series long.

You guys have really had horrible luck with injury, bummed not to be watching Booker.
team has also looked very inconsistent. g3 we looked great, g4 super ass. i really think we need booker back for game 6 of we win today.

Pels have really started to gel and play hard and well both ends too, they are a dangerous 8th seed.

Yeah Suns have to be careful with CP3's minutes now. He's played as many as the Pels player with the most at the half, and second most on the Suns. And he's being made to work just to get the ball to half court. Good work by the Pels, but CP3 needs help. Holiday brought the ball up at times, but he only played three minutes. Other guys have to do it, too.

Get a grip, dude. This is nothing new anywhere. Try again.
